After experiencing the zipline canopy, a brief drive transports you to Moin Town for a boat ride on the Tortuguero Canal.

Adventure in Puerto Limon - We booked this trip as shore excursion and it did not start out well. The tour operator already left as our ship arrived later then another cruise ship. They thought we were on the first ship and thought we didnt come.
Luckily for us there was a taxi driver, Dexter Foster, that knew the tour operator and called for us. He arranged that we could do the tour with him in his taxi!
We had a fun and lovely day with him. The zipline experience was great as well as the boat tour (saw all kind of animals, like monkeys and sloths).
Thanks again Dexter!

Ziplining in Costa Rica is fantastic - This is not your normal tourist, easy zip line. This is a real zip line and while they make it safe for you, if you are experienced, you can have fun as well. There are 12 zips in all and several of them are long and allow you to get some great speed and adrenalin. If you are a beginner, they have brakes at the end and they help you get set up. If you are experienced and want to speed into things, you can do that as well.
Now the canal boat half was interesting. It was OKAY. My family loved it seeing monkeys swinging through the trees and a few birds and snakes. For me, it was eh. I would have preferred to do the zip line a second time.
The only issue is we never had a chance to buy our photos as our tour bus was leaving as we ended. This was because our group was so large it took a longer time then necessary on the zipline.

Zipline you can handle - Experience was fantastic. It was actually 12 separate ziplines. Just thrilling to look at the canopy while you zip past. Note that unlike some ziplines this is not a superfast, adrenaline-rushing zipline which is over in 2 seconds. So, that made the experience more enjoyable. Once you finish the first one, even a novice will get the courage. Guides were very understanding that we were relatively new to ziplining and made us comfortable. Big thanks to our guides, Jaime and Jeronima. They made the difference. The guide who picked us up at the cruise port explained patiently everything. The driver was careful with the bumpy drive to get to the place.

Breath taking ! - If you want to experience the rainforest at different levels this is the trip for you!
Ariel the guide and Hector the driver made us all feel very welcome, Extremely knowledgable sharing really interesting facts with us.
The guides at Veragua zip line were brilliant! Very encouraging, patient and ensured we had a fabulous experience.
The second part of the excursion takes you along the canal where we saw numerous sloths, caymans, monkeys, lizards and many many birds.
A great day out while our cruise docked in Limon,
Would highly recommend

Would recommend the tour! - Steven was an excellent tour guide! Only me and my fiancé booked the excursion and he picked us up and basically gave us a private tour. He was kind and fun and showed us lots of cool things native to Costa Rica. Would def recommend!

Highs and lows - Our 1st time zip lining. I’m 77and the wife 74. The staff gave very good instructions and took time fitting the equip ent. The only downside was the rain which was nothing to do with the zip line company. This part of the tour would be 4 stars.
The Tortuguero Canal tour portion of the tour was not worth the 20 minutes or so it took. It was like they showed us a sloth in a tree a couple of monkeys and an iguana so tours over. I would give it a very generous 1 star.
Our drive Steve (Reynaldo) was the 5 star plus part of the tour. He answered our questions, gave us a history lesson, stopped to point out wildlife and show us the local flora. Overall Steve showed us more than the canal tour.

Cruise Excursion - Booked the zip line 'only' tour for 6 from home prior to joining a Norwegian Cruise stopping at Limon. The Rep (who was great) met us outside the port entrance, which is a brisk 10 minute walk from ship - so give yourself some time. There was a slight hiccup as he only had as down as a group of 2. However, it was quickly resolved after we produced the confirmation and/but we ended up on the zipline and canal tour. Zipline was great and the canal ride produced monkeys, iguanas and a couple of close ups with sloths. We didn't initially book the boat as it had mixed reviews - but you can't guarantee nature. the time on the mini bus was well informative - thanks to the rep.

Nice and informative tour - Tour guide and driver were informative and polite and courteous. Ways to improve- there were two tours going on at the same time for the passengers on our bus (a tram tour and our zip line tour ) We had to wait for more than 20 minutes on the passengers from the tram tour after our zip line ended.
